Appreciate the response. Already have a fully formatted MS Word file. Just need to find someone who can import the Word file, print the stencil, and do the etching.
I contacted an ACGG member regarding possibly doing it in real gold inlay... WAY out of my price range... Electro-etched and then filled with gold lettering paint will be sufficient...
ETA: Actually, a Gold Cerakote fill would probably be workable as well. What is it a graphic or something ? Two Hebrew words that I want rendered in a specific font, followed by the scripture reference.

Acid etching works great. I’ve personally become very good with letter and number punches. My trademark is also a punch so I’ve gotten good with it too.

I'm not so good with punches as it is hard to keep them lined up but acid etching works great. You can purchase a roll of blue die impression stencil for around $10 and make your stencils with an impact printer or typewriter. Make up some etching solution (vinegar/table salt) and use a battery charger or DC power supply and have at it. SD

I keep a diamond drag in a New Hermes style pantograph. Couple of different fonts and the machine from flea bay used. Very professional results....
